Kate,
Yes, I absolutely agree, let's close the book on personal attacks.

I have never written or said that any presentation by any LC who is paid by a
pump company is inherently unethical.

I have the highest regard for Nancy Mohrbacher.  Obviously, Hollister has the
highest regard for her, too.  Her credibility and her work on the
Breastfeeding Answer Book are impressive.  She is an enormous asset to Hollister.

Certainly, we need collaboration but these issues should be addressed.  It is
not an easy problem to deal with, even the medical community has a tough time
with the relationship between physicans and industries.  We can see by our
own community response to this that it is a difficult and complex issue.
